Proper use of the Medical Hoof Boot

Many people love the Woof Wears Medical Hoof Boot - and for good reason! It's a great invention that allows us to take good care of the horse while it is suffering from e.g. a hoof abscess or other hoof problem that requires a clean environment and dressing or wrapping. A hoof abscess or other hoof problem that requires a clean environment and bandaging or wrapping.

However, it is important that you use the Medical Hoof Boot correctly to avoid damaging the shoe (or the horse) during use. Therefore, we have created a short guide on how to use the Medical Hoof Boot correctly. Of course, it is inevitable that damage to a product may occur from time to time, but by giving the right instructions and using the product correctly, product damage and complaints can be avoided to a large extent.

Use of the Medical Hoof Boot:

ALWAYS use a bell in addition to the Medical Hoof Boot! A bell shields against blows from the other hooves and prevents the horse from stepping on the shoe.
Rubber bells are NOT enough! Rubber bells are simply too soft and don't go down far enough to provide adequate protection.
Use the right size Medical Hoof Boot! Injuries happen especially if the hoof boot is too big, so it's important to measure the hoof carefully to make sure the horse is wearing the right size. If the shoe is too big, the horse will more easily step on the edge and break the shoe.

We recommend using Woof Wear Ultra Kevlar b ells with the Medical Hoof Boot. These bells are heavy-duty in quality and go deep around the hoof to protect the shoe.

Measure the hoof correctly:

Be careful when measuring the width of the hoof. You need to measure BEFORE you tie the hoof and can measure the hoof with or without shoes.
Choose your size according to our guide (don't go up a size!)
Don't add extra to your measurement if the hoof needs to be tied or wrapped - the shoe must fit!

The unique hoof shoe
The snug-fitting "shoe" is designed to keep scrapes, wraps and dressings clean. The sturdy shoe can be used both inside the stable and in the paddock, allowing the horse some freedom instead of having to stand in a stall to keep the hoof clean for a minor injury that requires a level of hygiene.

You can always ask your local Medical Hoof Boot dealer for advice, or don't hesitate to contact Riding Equipment customer service.
